2｜Educational Society Program

The Educational Society Program is a course for students to study about theoretical and practical methods and outcomes of modern day social education. In doing so, students are challenged to identify a comprehensive and meaningful social education program for the future. Investigative research proposes: how to sustain today’s school system and organizational, administrative, and management structure and identifies challenges for the aforementioned. Research also evaluates familial and societal characteristics regarding educational achievements and choices, connections between the education and work, and the current state of business education and its issues. Students will explore the sustaining foundations and various relations for the structure of learning and education beyond the scope of academic education among infants, school age children, youth, adults and the elderly. Guided by a historical foundation, scientific analysis will be conducted on issues in the field of modern day education.
